S03E05 is with Jason Moore. Jason is an actor, martial artist, musician, and counselor. We have a great discussion on how Jason got into the acting world, but how he also uses his skills as a qualified psychotherapist to support his fellow actors and provide them with tools to overcome the hurdles of rejection and and doubt that many actors face on their journey.
Takeaways


Jason runs a counseling and psychotherapy business called Moore Mindful Services, where he specializes in providing support to entertainers and performers.He understands the unique challenges that actors face, such as performance anxiety, self-doubt, rejection, and depression.Jason's goal is to help actors manage these hurdles and reconnect with their purpose and passion. Overcoming rejection and doubt is crucial for actors, and it's important to change our negative programming and remind ourselves that rejection is often due to minor factors like appearance.Connecting with a deeper sense of purpose and reason for pursuing acting is essential, as it provides motivation and resilience during challenging times.Staying present in the moment during auditions and performances is crucial, and mindfulness techniques can help actors overcome imposter syndrome and performance anxiety.Creating a buffer zone between work and personal life, engaging in hobbies or interests outside of acting, and reaching out for support are important for maintaining mental well-being.Having mindfulness coaches or counselors on set can provide valuable support for actors during intense scenes and help them navigate challenging emotions.
You can find Jason online at Instagram and Facebook, as well as seek information on Moore Mindful Services.

Fresh off a night shift and still buzzing from an inspiring guest stint with Type Talent Training, I've decided to tackle the silent beast that haunts many of us actors: self-sabotage. We've all felt the cold grip of procrastination, the whispers of self-doubt, or the looming shadow of failure. But how often do we recognize these as the signs of self-imposed barriers? This episode peels back the curtain on the invisible forces at play, offering a deep dive into the mental hurdles that can hold us back from the spotlight. With insights from my own acting journey and the universal struggles actors face, this candid discussion aims to arm you with the strategies to break through these barriers.

As we unpack the psychological roots of self-sabotage and its impact on our careers, I share a personal tale from my bodybuilding  that sheds light on the parallels between physical and performance disciplines. It's a conversation that promises not only to uncover the ways we might unconsciously be our own worst enemies but also to inspire a shift toward resilience and self-awareness that could illuminate your path to personal and professional triumph.

S03E04: In this episode, I'm having a bit of a fan 'moment' having the opportunity to chat with Rachel Baker, aka the host of one of my favourite podcasts (outside of mine own of course).

When technical glitches are the prelude to an enlightening conversation, you know you're in for a treat. Rachel Lauren Baker, the vibrant force behind "Don't Be so Dramatic," joins us on a journey from her drama-laden youth to her multifaceted roles in acting and filmmaking. Along the way, she dives into the genesis of her podcast and her endeavors in mindset coaching, offering a beacon of wisdom for creatives navigating the highs and lows of the acting world.

Ever been asked, "Have you been in anything I've seen?" Rachel has, and she shares how flipping the script on such questions can transform self-perception and fuel an actor's confidence. As we chew over the nuances of self-taping auditions, Rachel provides personal insights and professional guidance for actors mastering this new normal. Her anecdotes not only demystify the technical side but also reveal the mental agility required to stand out in the virtual audition room.

But it's not all stage lights and camera angles. At the heart of our discussion is the potent reminder that self-belief is the cornerstone of not just an actor's career, but anyone's pursuit of fulfillment. Through Rachel's narrative, we are reminded of the profound truth that recognizing one's own worth is an essential step towards personal and professional growth, resonating with all who seek to harness their potential. Join us as we unpack these revelations and more, ensuring you leave with more than just a glimpse into the life of an actress and podcaster.
